    This is THE guide to help you understand what is needed to undervolt your compatible GPU inside of your laptop. This will help reduce heat and is a great addition to CPU undervolting for near ultimate thermal management!

      So does this replace throttlestop for undervolting? I have the Ideapad 720s you reviewed a year and half ago and throttlestop expired on me a while back so I ignored undervolting. I haven't traveled much for work this year so haven't needed to game on it much. This looks like a lot cleaner solution.

      Agreed.
      But you can just apply a -100mhz underclock and then bring up the first dot to your desired value then apply again. You will have way less dots to adjust after if any.

    If you shift then click(click then shift moves the whole curve) on the chart it lets you highlight a range, then if you hit shift+enter after selecting it, you can delete and type in a voltage and it sets the entire range to that voltage, a bit easier than flattening the curve imo.

    EDIT: I changed the "Unlock Voltage Control" setting (keeping it enabled) to "Reference Design", and enabled "Unlock voltage monitoring". This seems to have enabled undervolting for me, and my GPU temps in GTA 4 didn't cross 74 deg C during a short 25 minute playthrough. The max frequency is 1320 MHz.

      What i basically did was lower the frequency to 3.6GHz and undervolted till 125mV. This lowerd my temps to an average of 75°C. Sometimes peaking at 81/82. Now because of exams i do not really have a lot of time to test it more so I left it at that point. Performance wasn't impacted in the game. I can run warzone stable at 140 fps (everything on low 1080p). Maybe i've lost 2 frames or something but that doesn't outweigh the temp drop.

    Thanks a lot for this very informative video. I have a MSI GP65 Leopard with i7 10750H processor and Rtx 2070 GPU.
    This machine used to get hella hot with processor temperatures upwards of 90°C on heavy loads and the resulting fan noise was killing me.
    I used Throttlestop to reduce the turbo boost at 3.6 GHz (Undervolting did not show any appreciable temperature difference); this contained the processor temperature upto an acceptable 85°C on heavy loads. But the fan noise still remained.
    So I followed your steps and fixed the frequency of the GPU at 1420 MHz (The upper limit is 1440 MHz for the Rtx 2070 mobile). Now the GPU temperatures do not exceed 76°C and the processor temperatures also do not exceed 78°C even after hours of heavy gaming.
    This has resulted in a marked decrease in fan noise on the laptop, they run quite silent now. I think now I can also afford to increase the turbo boost a bit, in case I need more processing power. 👍👍

    It's definitely an improvement in some aspects, but I would not advise locking the voltage, as this won't allow your voltage to drop below that point even when idling. Ideally what you'll do is start as far left on the curve as possible - in your case, the first node - and raise that node up as high as possible while remaining stable. You'll increase your clock speed at that voltage, and you can flatten the curve after that point so your voltage never increases. No need to place a voltage lock. This essentially undervolts your GPU, as you are achieving clocks that required higher voltages on the stock curve. Of course, every system is different so each person will need to go through some trial-and-error with good benchmarking software and ideally some game benchmarks as well. In my case, I've dropped roughly 10 degrees while under load, while also gaining performance. The reason for the performance gain is because I'm not thermal throttling anymore.
    It should be noted that I'm using a desktop PC, but lower power is always going to equate to lower temperatures.

    Hi Bob, I've seen the video a couple of times so I was confident to start trying out my machine but I got a little confused right off the bat.
    I'm running a RTX 2060, i7-9750h on a Lenovo Legion Y540 and ran firestrike to see the standard values. This were the max'es i got on the HWinfo:
    Temp: 64º
    GPU Core Voltage: 1.063 W
    GPU Power: 82.357 W
    GPU Clock: 1,890 Mhz
    While running the OC scanner on MSI afterburn the GPU power went as high as 94 W.
    And i noticed that altho the HW state 1,890 Mhz for GPU clock the highest I saw running Firestrike was 1545 at 96% gpu usage (using the afterburner overlay).
    With Heaven benchmark runing for 20min i got similar results as firestrike including Temp (might go higher with a bigger cpu load).
    The Performance Limits I got checked were: Power, Reliability Voltage and Utilization.
    So everywhere I looked the RTX 2060 laptop is said to have a 1200 Mhz but this seems not to be the case, and I'm a bit confused where I should place my starting point.
    Can you give me any further insight?
    Thanks

    Apparently my laptop's 1060m N17E-G1-A1 was boosting far, far, beyond its stock clock speed. Making me hit 80-90c from the voltage. Default clock was 1405Mghz and it was boosting to 1800-1900 average. Locking the curve at 1550Mghz has both reduced temperatures by 20 degrees and has not affected FPS in the least. Took a bit of trial and error as going above 1550 induces a driver or... hardware? crash every time, but 1550 seems stable and has reduced voltage from 0.844 max to 0.700 max. 0.556 being idle.
    Playing a game at the moment GPU temp has now dropped below CPU temp at 59C with the CPU at 74C. I believe the 1060's idle temp is 45C? Overall it's a nice change.
    To be said I've already undervolted my CPU 7700HQ by 125mv.

Terrible frame rates at that frequency (obviously). Dell support has been completely useless. BIOS updates did nothing. This was it. That magical curve, or should I say Flat Line, fixed everything. Playing at 60 FPS on the RTX 2070 stock frequency for hours with no trouble at all.

      It also depends very much on the games you’re playing. If it’s Apex Legends neither CPU or GPU will struggle. But if you’re playing demanding Titles like Cyberpunk, it will be hard to eliminate high temperatures when both components need to work hard to keep the frame rate at an acceptable level.

    800 mv is the core clock for all your nodes. All cards have different mhz, thats why it's easier just to check what clock speed is necessary for flatline mod and that is suprisingly at 800mv. To do all nodes press shift + mouse 1 button, drag to select. Than shift + enter until you get to type not difference bet valus for all selected, type the number, in this video 1500mhz, and now all nodes are 1500mhz. Click apply check if there are any uneven dips, try to increase all nodes to the highest dip if not than lower it. You have to make it flatline for flatline mod to work. Now when you get flatline, cuda cores will choose the lowest possible voltage sometimes on some cards they jump in voltages, but cuda will auto select it for you instead of constantly changing locked node. If you are minning, the lowest you can get is 725-730mv on default lock, but with flatline it's possible to achieve on some cards 700 mv. You get very efficient card not only for minning, but for laptop, gaming so on and forth. Also afterwards you play with vram till pc crash, than lower the settings. Due to undervolt it will become cooler, fans won't spin hard, power consumption will be less and more efficient, performance depends as with a bit higher mv you can get more performance, but it will decrease in efficiency.
    And try to stress test your settings, how hot it is. If its 70c than make fan 70%. After two minutes redo the same step (lets say temp increased 1c we increase fan speed 1%). You will find the sweet spot for your gpu. Instead of running 100% all time, creating noise, increasing power consumption and not necessarily increasing performance. Or auto just does good job too..

    I used throttlestop to undervolt the cpu (-125mV) and disable intel turbo boost, capping the CPU to 1.6GHz but keeping it under 60°C. In my case the GPU is the bottleneck, so I don't mind loosing CPU performance.
    I also undervolted my MX150. Went from 1700MHz 1125mV to 1500MHz 800mV, as for the memory it went from 1500MHz to 2000MHz. I lost 200MHz on the GPU side, but also a lot of thermal throttling thanks to the 325mV undervolt. Now both the CPU and GPU don't thermal throttle.

    Be mindful when you search for your laptop dGPU especially when there are a couple of different variants for that same model you have. This is at least applicable to NVIDIA GeForce 1650 where there is the original GDDR5 version, and then there is the latest one that uses GDDR6 for its 4GB VRAM. For laptops, it will specifically say it is "Mobile" version e.g. NVIDIA GeForce 1650 GDDR6 Mobile.
    This is not according to the official naming scheme but it will help with making your search more accurate by using the correct keywords so that you don't refer to the wrong GPU's TDP and base/boost clock frequency.

    Hi Bob ( @bobofalltrades), excellent content as usual. An off-topic question(s), I purchased OP15+(8750h,GTX1060,16GB) for $799 last year after watching excellent videos of yours on it. Since I live outside US, I have received the laptop back in March (after 3 months of waiting & spending another $200 on shipping & import fee). I hardly ever used the laptop as I had observed two issues with my OP+ immediately,
    1) Writing to USB devices connected to USB 2.0 port fails although reading from them works fine. This issue more prominent when making bootable USB from Linux OS ISOs & using 'fastboot' to flash recoveries & stuff to my Android device(I tinker with my Android phone a lot). It's not that it fails to write any data, but it goes upto 90-99% & then fails with a error message (something like device is removed although device is still connected to USB 2.0 port). The USB 3.0 ports on other side works fine with any USB drive, but USB 2.0 port is needed for unlocking bootloaders & flashing stuff to Android phones. Clean installed Windows, updated drivers & even observed same issue from Linux OS installation. Can you shed some light what might be the possible cause & solution (if any)?. I opened up laptop & taken out USB 2.0 module, have observed nothing wrong physically with module or port.
    2) I have never used Mechanical keyboard on a laptop before, but I felt this keyboard to be weird. I normally type 45-47 WPM with 99% accuracy (minimum). But on this keyboard, I double type letters many times (keys are too sensitive?!!, if that's the right word). With this both my typing speed & accuracy goes wayward. And sometimes space bar needs to be pressed on specific area(towards centre) for it to register. How easy it is open up the keyboard on OP15+ (hoping that can fix whatever is wrong with keyboard by opening it).
    And by the way, which one of the following (I can get only get these in my country) is a better thermal paste solution to be used with OP15+?.
    Arctic Silver 5, Crosair TM30 Performance, Arctic MX-4 2019, Cooler Master Master Gel & Cooler Master Thermal Grease Master Gel Pro.
    Apologize for the long comment that too on an unrelated video page. Your quick suggestions will be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

Temps were constantly getting around 86-87 degrees celsius everytime, ramping up the fans to the max and that's even with a Kootek external cooling pad underneath. Once I followed your instructions, now the temps stay around 76-79, 80 max, that's a 7-10 degree drop compared to before. The only thing I'm not that happy about is that the fps stays at a minimum 30-31 frames per second and doesn't go above that. Gameplay is fluent but, I wish it would yield more fps. If you have a suggestion as to how to increase fps and still keep the gpu undervolted I would love to know about it. Thanks!

    This is an amazing video, thanks so much. The frequency curve is a revelation. An easy way to tell if you are power limiting throttling is tick the "power limit" section in the monitoring tab in MSI afterburner. 1 = power throttling 0=your peachy 😛. A really quick way to check this is to run heaven or something on a loop in the background, open the voltage curve and just choose frquencyand lock it. Check afterburner and see if the monitoring software graph is pegged to "1". If so you are power limit throttling, choose a lower frequency, apply and repeat. Once the monitor is giving you a flat 0, no more power limiting. I have a metabox (read sager/clevo) 2070 laptop. My 2070 power limits above 1575Mhz.

    Hey, hope you see this but I'm having a lot of difficulties where my GPU will lower its base clock all the way down to around 500-700 MHz from base from clock of around 1100-1260. With boost around 1300-1460 ( I have a 1060 max-q.) This only occurs when I see the CPU power wattage drop from around 17-20 to low 10-15. I have an i7 8750h which is rated at 45W. Im not sure what to do as I've been at this for a week now to no avail. I have also played around with ThrottleStop to limit the CPU turbo ratio to 34 on all cores. I've also messed with the long and short turbos being at 22 and 26 with a limit of 1. I undervolted the cpu at around -.350Mhz on the core and -.125 on the cache.

    Wait so can i use the undervolting method just off my battery? Like you said in the beginning that I should have my laptop plugged in, plugged in just to undervolt or plugged in even playing games and doing tasks?

      The issue with laptop gpu and MSI Afterburner is Afterburner’s monitoring tool, because laptop always switches between integrated gpu and dedicated gpu according to tasks it’s performing. It influences Afterburner’s monitoring tool, it’s always switching while you’re not gaming or performing gpu tasks, loads your system as a result of it, system loads cpu and you end up with much worse battery life because of permanent cpu load. You can run all tasks on dedicated gpu, it solves the issue, but it’s not good for your gpu, so just pause monitoring tool in MSI Afterburner. It won’t load your system anymore. After that you don’t need to close Afterburner and you can use it permanently, but with monitoring tool paused when you’re not gaming, etc. That’s it, I spent the whole day on researching, when I found out that my battery life became only 2 hour with Afterburner always on.

    Hi Bob! Thanks a ot for this guide. I am currently experimenting with my Asus ROG M15 Zephyrus (2070 max Q) and I think i'm getting something stable at 1545 mhz @ 0.713 mv, but still need to do further testing. I do have one question (Even though it may sound super dumb and googling hasn't really answered the question for met). What is the actual relevance and impact of power throttling? (the LIM1 indicator that appears on your videos). Because when trying to go beyond 1545 mhz as core frequency, I always start getting into this territory, but honestly I don't understand is having power throttling activated at a higher frequency is best or worse than having for instance 1545 mhz but with no power throttling whatsoever. I would really appreciate your feedback on this doubt. Thanks a lot for all your guide and help!!!

      Laptops are always going to power throttle until we can get the efficiency of something like a M1 MacBook chip

      @@BobOfAllTrades so this means that the power limit activation shouldn't be worrying me? (unless I actually see that he core mhz is going below what I am aiming at, for example, 1545 mhz in this case)

      @@anibalhuneeus No you can just use it as a guide to know how far that undervolt can be pushed. Because if your power throttling you’re just throwing excessive voltage at the part and therefore increasing heat

    I dropped my Strix 2070 i7 10th gen to 1400 frequency and now my gpu temperature dropped from 87 to 72 while playing warzone. Finally saved me from thermal throttling all the time!!!!!!!!

    Ooer, i see this is a slightly more involved process than the cpu version. Goodnesss, this graph editor is fiddly...
    Is there any "probably safe" rules of thumb to go off for specific cards besides what's covered here? I've got a 1070 max-Q in my razer blade and it's my prime concern for thermal instability on this hotbox. Should there be any issues with the "straight flat line" approach besides the obvious inefficiency of the curve meaning lower performance than i could in theory safely get by testing each point using the method shown and tweaking? (I didnt quite 'get' that bit, it's my first time and I don't wanna brick this thing by accidentally dragging something somewhere it shouldn't be.)
    Haven't tested yet but it seems that i'm getting confused a bit over what actually is the correct values to set for the curve, since i'm getting different numbers from different sites, and in honesty i'm really getting lost in all this. Currently thinking of setting it to a stable 1300 flat line, but i'm absolutely certain that i don't understand this well enough to be safely making decisions here. I'm really worried about screwing up.
    Biggest issue i've been running into is that my system temps were constantly hitting or exceeding 99 celcius on this hunk of metal (to the point where i have a literal hunk of metal on the keyboard to increase its thermal mass and slow down the rate at which it overheats, which netted me about 2C differences for the first hour of intensive gaming.) I literally could not touch the keyboard when gaming most of the time without burning my fingers, and it's been this way since I got it, new, and I was foolish and didn't RMA it to get it checked.
    It doesn't help that the intakes are on the bottom and the outlet is practically right next to it, with very little clearance between the intake and the surface it is on without raising it, which then introduces the hot exhaust *straight back into the intakes.* I need all the airflow i can get into this thing as i've learned through testing, so i now have this janky ass setup where the thing is raised up and has a barricade separating the exhaust from the inlets. I have never been able to use this thing as a portable laptop.

    Great video, but questions! Undervolting can increase FPS? or is better to overclock?

  • @srdelsalto

    I follow this tutorial on my Y545 and i love the new temps on GPU and CPU. Just a little thing that i see and i dont know if is important is that with the stock Curve it shows the already explained 'power limit' i do the tutorial and it gone but now i see 'no load limit'. Is this 'not load limit' important or a thing i have to keep in mind? Thanks for your awesomes tutorials

    Thanks for all of your great content! I have watched all of your tutorial videos concerning CPU and GPU undervolting using TS and Afterburner. My question is, once I get all of the numbers to a place where I like them, do you run those undervolted numbers/programs all the time? In your videos, you show how to set up both TS and Afterburner to start at log-in/turn on and stay minimized. The undervolted numbers are obviously good for gaming, but if I am planning on casually usually the machine for a few hours, is it harmful to continue to let the undervolting software run in the background? I would think not, but I saw on the forum that you mentioned turning off Afterburner while not gaming (and while unplugged, which is more of an obvious because of the ping).
